Product Description

This is a component of the BlueBoat. We recommend choosing components from the BlueBoat Components page to make sure you get everything you need.

This cable connects multiple 4S or 6S lithium batteries together for discharge, charge, and balancing. There are fuses hardwired into each battery connection in the cable to protect against overcurrent situations. The batteries are connected via high current connectors and JST XH balance connectors. An additional XT90 and XH connector allows you to plug the group of batteries in as if it were one battery.

Important: This product must be used with extreme caution! Batteries connected in parallel should always be of a similar type, similar age and condition, and identical charge and balance state. Always connect the balance connectors to the battery. Anything other than this can cause damage or destruction of a battery resulting injury and/or property damage.

Always follow these guidelines to connect batteries in parallel! Incorrectly connecting batteries in parallel can lead to battery failure, damage to equipment, and potential fire hazard.

The battery connections in the BlueBoat are all electrically connected in parallel. Connecting lithium batteries in parallel requires extra precautions to avoid damaging the batteries and equipment:

  • Only connect batteries with the same specifications in terms of voltage, amp hour capacity, and discharge rate.
  • Only connect batteries that are at the same charge level (voltage), within 0.2 volts.
  • Only connect batteries that are similar in age and health.
